Background
In the era of personalized and precision medicine, the importance of combining these paradigms with dosimetric studies has increased (1-3) and thus endpoints such as the efficacy, safety and toxicity of therapy radiopharmaceuticals is of paramount importance. As a result, computational studies have shown promise to simulate different dosimetry schemes. Herein, we conduct an...
